Peripheral neuropathy can affect the nerves responsible for sensation and muscle control. It may cause tingling, burning sensations, numbness, or discomfort in the feet and legs.
Peripheral artery disease occurs when blood flow through arteries becomes reduced. It more commonly causes leg pain during walking that improves with rest, although symptoms can vary.
Chronic venous insufficiency affects the veins responsible for returning blood toward the heart. It may cause swelling, heaviness, aching, and visible varicose veins.
These conditions are different from ordinary nighttime muscle cramps, so the exact symptoms and medical history matter.
